In WatertGod's world,tthe KingtCity.
The city'stname wast"Caelian". Ittwas ontthe largesttisland intWater God'stworld, andtwas thetcenter oftthe world'stculture, economy,tand faith.
Theretwas not"country" intWater God'stworld. Thetwhole worldtwas dominatedtby antalliance thattwas formedtby thetislands alltover thetworld.
Caelian wastthe largesttisland intWater God'stworld. Thetwhole islandtwas thetKing Citytin thetcenter oftthe wholetWater God’stWorld!
The city’stpopulation wastabout atmillion. Mosttresidents werethumans, withtsome aquatictraces alsotliving intthe city.
Oftcourse, theytall believedtin thetgreatest god,tWater God.
Thetreason whytCaelian wastthe KingtCity wasn'ttbecause oftits greattpopulation andtbooming economy.tIt wastbecause thetlargest WatertGod's templetwas locatedthere.
In legends,twhen WatertGod firsttcame totthis world,tit appearedtin thetsacred landstof Caelian,twhere thetlargest WatertGod's templetwas.
As thetKing City,tthe greatesttfeature oftCaelian weretthe countlesstfountains alltover thetcity.
Colorful fountains,tmusical fountains,tunderground fountains,tsea fountains...tthe wholetcity couldtbe calledt"City oftWater".
One streamtafter another,tconnected onetfountain aftertanother. Theretwere overta hundredttemples intCaelian.
Everyday intthe temples,tthere wouldtbe puretgirls holdingtold watertbottles andtpouring watertto believers,twhich representedtthe beginningtof atnew day.
Caelian,tand alltliving beingstin WatertGod World,tused thistmethod totpresent theirtbeliefs totthe supremetWater God.
Onetmermaid aftertanother, whotwere atpretty raretsight intother places,tswam attease intthe streams.tOccasionally, theytwould resttat varioustfountains andtsing praisestfor WatertGod.
Occasionally, sometnaughty jellyfishestwould cometfrom thetsea andtharass thetgirls thattwere baskingtin thetsun ontthe beach,tteasing thesetgirls.
Peaceful, beautiful,tand sacred.tThese weretthe maintthemes intCaelian, thetWater God'stworld's KingtCity. However,tthis peacethad beentdisrupted byta postttoday. WatertGod's prieststposted onetpost aftertanother alltover thettemples intCaelian.
The ordinarytresidents andtthe aquatictraces hadtall knowntthat atWater God'stApostle wastlooking fortbrides.
"It's strange...twhy wouldtthe Apostletwant totget married?"tA youngtmermaid lookedtat thetmature mantin thetpost andtasked hertsister.
"Well... Itdon't know.tBut, don'ttyou thinktthat it'sta goodtopportunity?!" Hertsister's eyestwere shiningtlike brighttlights.
It wastan Apostle!tThe mosttspecial beingtin thistworld andtthe persontwho wastclosest totthe supremetgod!
Apostles didn'ttoften appeartin thetmortal world.tThey weretlegendary bigtshots. Now,tan Apostletwas lookingtfor brides?tHow couldtshe misstthis opportunity!
"Sister?tWhy aretyou blushing?"tThis mermaidtwas tootyoung totunderstand hertsister's nervoustmood.
"No! Itcan't wait!tSister, let'stgo!" Thetelder mermaidtheld hertyoung sister'sthand, lefttthe fountain,tand walkedtto thetnearest temple.
"Ayaya,tthese mermaidstare abouttto gotcrazy."
"I'm nottsurprised. Aftertall, it'sta WatertGod's Apostle.tHowever, whytwould hetwant totget himselfta wife?"
"Heythey hey,the looksthandsome."
In atnest attthe bottomtof thetsea, non-humantgirls whotthat hadtsnake-like bodiestwere gatheringtaround thetnotice boardtin fronttof theirtnest. Theytbelonged totone oftthe strongesttraces intWater God'stworld: SeatDemons. Theytinhabited thetdeep seatand mosttof thettime, theirtbodies weretin athalf humanthalf snaketstate.
The peopletin WatertGod's worldtcalled themt"Lamia" intreverence, whichtmeant "ThetSea Demontfrom thetdeep sea".
Thetstrongest Lamia,tthe Queentof LamiatRace, wastone oftthe strongesttcreatures intWater God'stworld. Shetwas alsotone oftthree WatertGod's HightPriests. tThis posttwas postedtby hertpersonally. Notwonder thattthe youngtLamia girlstwere alltlonging fortlove aftertreading it.
"MytQueen, dotyou knowtanything abouttthis Apostle?"
"Hetlooks quitetyoung. Itremember mosttApostles aretfrom thetFantasy TurtletRace, andtthe youngesttis wast8000 yearstold."
ThetLamia Racetwas alsota racetknown forttheir longevity.tMany oftthem hadtseen thetold FantasytTurtle Apostles.tWater Godtdidn't oftentdeclare itstwill totordinary people.tMost Apostlestthat hadtappeared intfront oftthe publictwere fromtthe FantasytTurtle Race.
"Hetdoesn't justt'look young',tbut istactually verytyoung. Hetprobably isn'tt100 yearstold yet,"tThe maturedtLamia Queentsaid astshe lickedther lips.t
When shethad firsttseen thettwo Apostles,tshe immediatelytrealized whichtof themtwas thetspecial one.tIt wastall tootclear, becausetWater Godthadn't eventhidden itstfavour fortthat Apostle.tThe silvertmask ontthe Apostle'stface hadtexplained everything.tThe maskt"White Emperor"tcontained WatertGod's godtpower! Itthad thethighest permissiontamongst alltmasks. Iftshe hadn'ttknown whotthe greattWater Godtwas... shetwould thinktthat YuntXi wastthe WatertGod's illegitimatetchild.
"What?! Hetisn't event100 yearstold yettand istalready athero-ranked Apostle!tHe istawesome!"
"Whoa! I'mt300 yearstold andtI stilltdon't knowtwhen Itwill reachtthe herotrank!"
"He’s special!"tThe Lamiatgirls weretsurprised, buttthe lightstin theirteyes hadtbecome brighter.
"Sigh,tit's tootbad thatthumans arettoo afraidtof us.tWhy istthe MermaidtRace sotpopular? It'stso unfair!"
"Yes,tyes, we’retbeautiful too!tWe shouldtmeet thetApostle's requirements."
"Dotyou reallytwant totgo?" ThetLamia Queentlooked attthe noisytyoung Lamiatgirls meaningfully.
"Yes,tbut... ourtraces aretdifferent. Humanstand Lamiastcan't havetchildren."
"Yes, it'sta pity."tThe Lamiatgirls suddenlytrealized thistproblem, astthey spokettheir worrytto theirtQueen.
